About Me

My photo
Pastor Peters
I have been a Lutheran Pastor for more than 45 years, serving in the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod first at Resurrection in Cairo, NY, and then at Grace, Clarksville, TN.

Obviously not all of equal weight or importance, this is the place where you meet some of those meandering thoughts from this pastoral mind.
